On the closing of the Transaction, OMP will file papers seeking to dismiss OMP as a plaintiff and to join PURCHASER as a plaintiff and/or substitute PURCHASER as a plaintiff in the Litigations. OMP shall either obtain agreement from the defendants in the Litigations for OMP to be dismissed as a counterclaim defendant or shall itself move to be dismissed as a counterclaim defendant.

 

18.2.       Joint Litigation Agreement

 

PURCHASER hereby assumes and OMP would not object to PURCHASER assuming the rights and obligations of OMP under the Joint Litigation Agreement [***], and accepting all the terms and conditions of that Agreement (the “Joint Litigation Agreement”). [***]

 

So as not to disrupt the ongoing Litigations, to avoid the necessity of new litigation counsel having to get up to speed while the Litigations are ongoing, and to avoid GRÜNENTHAL’s counsel from having to take on additional responsibilities for the Litigations, PURCHASER agrees to have and further subject to resolution of any conflicts of interest to the satisfaction of OMP, [***]

 

18.3.       Community of Interest, Confidentiality and Joint Defense Agreement

 

PURCHASER agrees and OMP does not object to PURCHASER agreeing to enter into and being bound by the Community of Interest, Confidentiality and Joint Defense  Agreement dated [***] between GRÜNENTHAL and OMP, in order to permit confidential communications between the Parties and the parties to that agreement that involve Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Janssen Research and Development LLC, or their predecessors-in-interest and concern the enforcement and defense of the GRÜNENTHAL Patents.

 

PURCHASER agrees and OMP does not object to PURCHASER agreeing to enter into and being bound by a Community of Interest, Confidentiality and Joint Defense Agreement with GRÜNENTHAL, having the same terms and conditions as the [***] Community of Interest, Confidentiality and Joint Defense Agreement in order to permit confidential communications between GRÜNENTHAL and PURCHASER concerning the future enforcement and defense of the GRÜNENTHAL Patents.

 

18.4.       Cooperation and Assistance.

 

Upon GRÜNENTHAL’s or PURCHASER’s reasonable request, OMP shall assist and provide support to the requesting party with regard to the Litigations.  The requesting party shall reimburse OMP for its reasonable internal and out-of-pocket costs related to such assistance and support (other than the costs of any OMP actions that are required by a court, including depositions of OMP’s witnesses, related preparations of OMP’s witnesses and production of OMP-documents for discovery, which costs OMP will bear).

 

19.                               This Assignment Agreement shall become effective as of the Execution Date and shall continue in effect in perpetuity except as provided in paragraph 4.  The provisions of

a.                   RECITALS

 

1.                                Grünenthal has screened in a [***] program more than [***] compounds and has identified CG-5503 (hereinafter defined) as an interesting drug candidate.

 

2.                                Grünenthal has the sole and exclusive ownership of certain Patents claiming CG-5503.

 

3.                                Grünenthal has conducted in-vitro and in-vivo testing of CG-5503 and has conducted comprehensive pre-clinical, pharmacology, safety pharmacology toxicology tests of CG-5503.

 

4.                                Grünenthal has completed development of an iv, oral and oral slow-release formulation of CG-5503 and all necessary trials to establish proof of principle.

7.                                Grünenthal has to comply with the ICH Guidelines and Helsinki Declaration which seek to minimize the number of patients exposed to non-registered new drugs by not duplicating clinical trials in different regions of the world.

 

8.                                Grünenthal wants to ensure that the clinical trial plan for the Product in the USA and Canada and the EU is carried out on a consistent and comprehensive basis with a view to ensuring that the necessary Regulatory Approvals are obtained as early as practicable using the best available resources and facilities and in the most efficient and economic manner.

 

9.                                Grünenthal aims to Commercialize, by itself or through licensees, Product on a world-wide basis, but at the time of execution of the original Combined Territories License Agreement had no sales organization in the United States.

 

10.                         OMP has considerable experience in marketing, promotion, manufacturing and obtaining Regulatory Approvals for pain products in the United States.

 

11.                         Accordingly, Grünenthal wishes to grant to OMP, and OMP wishes to obtain from Grünenthal, a license to make, use and sell the Product in the United States.

 

12.                         Grünenthal seeks to ensure that it manages the global risk benefit analysis for the Product by pooling all global efficacy and safety data and presenting such to all relevant registration authorities, while acknowledging that certain Regulatory Authorities require studies to be conducted in their specific country.

 

13.                         In order to comply with all applicable regulatory rules and regulations and in order to obtain and maintain Regulatory Approvals, Grünenthal and OMP and its Affiliates in their respective Territories have concluded a separate pharmacovigilance agreement.to coordinate their activities, including, but not limited to adverse event reporting.

 

14.                         Within the clinical trial plan for achieving Regulatory Approval in the US and the EU which has been developed by Grünenthal and subsequently co-developed by OMP and Grünenthal, Grünenthal is prepared to allocate to, and OMP is prepared to accept, certain responsibilities and activities pertaining to the clinical trial plan so that the Product may be successfully Commercialized by each Party independently in their respective Territories.

15.                                             OMP as licensee for the United States, representing approximately [***] of the world market, is prepared to contribute to the resources and costs of the Regulatory Approval Preparation by bearing [***] of such resources and costs.

 

16.                                             OMP ́s contribution to the Regulatory Approval Preparation is a substantial part of the consideration for the licenses being granted hereunder apart from upfront payments, milestone payments and royalty payments.

 

17.                                             OMP and Grünenthal have agreed jointly to develop the Grünenthal-ADF-Formulation.

6.2                              Payment of RAP Costs.

 

With regard to OMP Territory and Grünenthal Territory. Resource plans will be developed initially and updated on a regular basis with approval from the Parties. OOPs will be managed by a common account (“OOP Account”), starting on January 1, 2003. The Parties will make reasonable efforts to share the FTE resources according to their Proportionate Share as long as reasonable for the project (time to market, expertise, costs, etc.). The deviation between the Proportionate Share split will be determined and balanced by a common escrow account (“FTE Account”) every [***] starting on January 1, 2003. The Exceeding FTEs will be charged at the then existing OMP FTE rate(s) as specified in the RAP Plan. As used herein, “Exceeding FTEs” mean the disproportionate amount of FTEs used by one Party compared to the other Party. FTE funds will accrue interest on an annualized basis as calculated using British Bankers Association 12 months Euro LIBOR as fixed two banking days prior to the date on which a Proportionate Share split is determined and balanced. The FTE Account will be carried forward until the end of the Core RAP Program. Each Party will have the opportunity, by providing extra FTEs in order to reduce Exceeding FTEs (provided such are approved in the RAP Plan), to recover parts of its payment into the FTE

(i)                                     Cost Overruns. If actual RAP expenses exceed the RAP Costs and FTE resources approved by the Parties and allocated to one Party (“Cost Overruns”) in accordance with this Section 6.2, these Cost Overruns shall be shared by the Parties according to its Proportionate Share up to an amount of [***] of the amount approved by the Parties. Additional expenses and FTE resources over and above the [***] limit shall be solely borne by the Party for the activity that resulted in such overage; provided, however, that if such Party is able to demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of the other Party that such overage is in the interest of both Parties, such overage shall be shared by the Parties according to its Proportionate Share.

 

The share of Cost Overruns does not apply to RAP expenses allocated to one Party by 100%.

 

(ii)                                  Records and Audits. During the term of this Agreement, each Party shall keep and maintain accurate and complete records showing the expenses incurred by it in performing its activities under the RAP Plan during the three (3) preceding calendar years, which books and records shall be in sufficient detail such that RAP Costs can accurately be determined.

The Audited Party may require the accounting firm to sign a standard non-disclosure agreement before providing the accounting firm access to the Audited Party’s facilities or records. Upon completion of the audit, the accounting firm shall provide both OMP and Grünenthal a written report disclosing whether the reports submitted by the Audited Party are correct or incorrect and the specific details concerning any discrepancies. No other information shall be provided to the Auditing Party. If the accountant determines that errors were made in the reports so submitted, the Parties shall promptly correct any errors and make any necessary adjustments. The Auditing Party shall bear all costs and expenses of the audit, provided, however, that if the audit reveals that the Audited Party has incorrectly charged to the OOP Account the lesser of [***] more than entitled to or an amount exceeding [***] more than entitled to, the Audited Party shall bear all costs and expenses of the audit.

Before incurring such expenses, the Parties shall in good faith agree in writing on the nature and extent of assistance to be rendered.

 

7.11        Third Party Patents. If a Patent or Patents of a Third Party should exist or should issue to a Third Party in any country in the OMP Territory during the term of this Agreement, which OMP believes, in its reasonable judgment, may be infringed by the manufacture, use or sale of the Product in such country, and OMP believes in its reasonable judgment, that it would be impractical or impossible to continue to Commercialize or Commercialize the Product without obtaining a royalty bearing license from such Third Party under such Patent or Patents in said country, then OMP shall promptly notify Grünenthal in writing to that effect with legal opinions. OMP and Grünenthal shall [***] towards the Patent of such Third Party under the consideration of the interest of both Parties. However, if the Parties are unable to agree on [***], the dispute will be referred to the responsible managing director of Grünenthal and the President of OMP for resolution.

OMP and Grünenthal agree to cooperate with one another in obtaining such extension. Each Party agrees to cooperate with the other Party in the exercise of the authorization granted herein and will execute such documents and take such additional action as the may reasonably be necessary in connection therewith, including, if necessary, permitting itself to be joined as a Party in any suit for infringement brought by a Party hereunder.

The RSC will determine the allocation of costs between OOP and internal FTEs based on the principles of Exhibit 10.3(b). Within its responsibilities, the RSC may decide on certain cost allocations of the annual budget within the limits of such budget. If actual costs of implementing the RAP Plan exceed the total amounts budgeted for expenditure during the relevant period, and will lead to an overage of the annual budget, the RSC will revise, provided that the Parties mutually agree, the RAP Plan and submit it in writing, with an explanation of the variance and the reasons therefore for approval to the SC. The RSC shall be responsible for implementation of the RAP Plan under the oversight of the SC.

(a)                                 The Parties anticipate that the Product will initially be Commercialized using a Grünenthal formulation currently being used in clinical trials. However, in the event that the filing of a Drug Approval Application in the OMP Territory for the ADF Formulation, (which has been selected according to Section 12.1(b)), would not delay the filing of a Drug Approval Application for the Grünenthal formulation currently used in clinical trials by more than six (6) months, then OMP may file its Drug Approval Application for the selected ADF Formulation.

 

(b)                                 At present, Grünenthal is working on its own ADF Formulations of the Product and is considering further suitable technologies of abuse deterrent formulations. OMP is considering an OMP-ADF-Formulation incorporating OMP Technology. It is the aim of the Parties to agree, as soon as all relevant data regarding the decision criteria described below are available, on one worldwide ADF Formulation for Commercialization. In advance of agreeing upon a worldwide ADF Formulation, each Party shall, independently of the other Party and objectively, evaluate its own ADF Formulation regarding all main decision criteria. The main decision criteria are:

 

(i)                                     abuse deterrence potential of various administration routes,

 

(ii)                                  feasibility of bio-equivalence to the current formulation (non ADF),

 

(iii)                               development costs,

 

(iv)                              costs of goods,

 

(v)                                 scope of patent protection,

 

(vi)                              development time,

 

(vii)                           regulatory aspects,

 

(viii)                        legal aspects,

 

(ix)                              improvement of overall activity profile.

This Agreement, together with all Exhibits and Side Letters Nr. 1 through Amended Side Letter Nr. 21, attachments and schedules hereto, constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, that all rights and obligations of the Parties under the Combined Territories License Agreement arising prior to the Effective Date shall be governed by the Combined Territories License Agreement. For the sake of clarity, all rights and obligations of the Parties with respect to Canada and Japan arising on and after the Effective Date of this Agreement shall be governed by Canada/Japan License Agreement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement, together with the Canada/Japan License Agreement, amends, restates, supersedes and terminates the Combined Territories License Agreement and all previous agreements between the Parties under the Combined Territories License Agreement.

 

18.10                Advice of Counsel. OMP and Grünenthal have each consulted counsel of their choice regarding this Agreement, and each acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement shall not be deemed to have been drafted by one Party or another and will be construed accordingly.

 

18.11                Consents Not Unreasonably Withheld. Whenever provision is made in this Agreement for either Party to secure the consent or approval of the other, that consent or approval shall not unreasonably be withheld, and whenever in this Agreement provision is made for one Party to object to or disapprove a matter, such objection or disapproval shall not unreasonably be exercised.

18.13                Force Majeure.

The Party giving notice shall be excused from such obligations hereunder as it is disabled from performing for so long as it is so disabled; provided, however, that Party commences and continues to take reasonable and diligent actions to cure or remedy such force majeure. In the event of any such force majeure event, the Parties shall meet promptly to determine an equitable solution to the effects of any such event. The term of the agreement shall not be extended by any force majeure.
